Description

Born on the reliable and proven Panzerkampfwagen 38t light tank chassis, the Hetzer was set in the second half of 1943 to equip the German Army with a light tank destroyer more cost effective than the bigger and heavier Jagdpanther and Jagdtiger. The main features of the project were: a low profile, a good armored compared to the size, and a good fire power guarantee by the use of the 75 mm. anti-tank gun. Furthermore, other important developing drivers were the possibility to produce easily and at a low cost. The Hetzer entered in service in the second half of 1944 and it was extremely effective and lethal even against the most powerful Allied tanks.

Miniatures are supplied unpainted and some assembly may be required.
